“The Softest Threat“

The Softest Threat To love is to risk the bite. I’m sharing both versions because vulnerability and the mask we wear to protect it go hand-in-hand.

Super Bowl in the Bay had me hoping for Lamar

This piece is from that iconic press conference (fresh braid-out, reporters hounding him, and his response was everything). Gave me straight Allen Iverson “practice” energy.

Chain or no chain?

I’ve been playing with shadows lately. Sometimes the “compliment” is just a distraction for the gaze.

“Nice hat.”

Created this the other day. It feels good to be making art again.

What do you think?

Street Flair was a turning point for me.
I’m documenting my process as I rebuild my visual language, and this one felt like coming home.

I had to shed layers of who I thought I was. But I realized I couldn't move forward without the person who started it all. I went back and got her!

I present to you: “I Didn’t Know.”

The full collection will be available on my website this
Monday.

Doing something extra for the person who is everything.

I turned Chris’s birthday gifts into a cinematic zine/ mini book this year with voiceovers and hand-drawn pages.Seeing his reaction made every hour in the edit suite worth it.

Cheers to another year of your story, Chris!

Meet “Auntie Knows.” She’s the second to last piece of this production. She represents the patience and the wisdom it took to get here. She’s seen the journey from the first sketch to the final frame.

Only one more to go.

Merry Christmas everyone! Here’s a piece I created inspired by one of my all-time favorite movies and characters, The Grinch. 🎄💚

A few years ago, I produced, wrote, directed, shot, color graded, and edited a fun Christmas campaign made up of five 15-second commercials.

The concept was simple and playful. We used these iconic hands to sell the product.

It’s not Christmas without The Grinch. I made this small piece called “The Green One.”

I leaned fully into my naive art style with this one, loose, playful, and a little mischievous… just like him.

A few weeks ago we got to see one of my favorite artists, KAWS, at the KAWS FAMILY exhibition in San Francisco.

It was incredible. We had the best time, and I left feeling so inspired and ready to make more movies and create even more art.

Somebody’s Son” is a piece I created to honor the coming-of-age stories I witnessed growing up.

The ones who were lost…but still trying.

This was one of the first digital pieces I created when I finally came back to making art.

The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air has always been one of my comfort shows, and Aunt Viv? I adored her. #art #artist #blackart #blackartist #popart
